Could it be the RAF Air Sea Rescue Branch - the unit which featured in the classic 1950s war film "The Sea Shall not Have Them".

I've only ever seen the cloth arm badge illustrated, which looks nothing like that. It has an air-sea rescue launch on it with, I think, ASR and a wave pattern.
Glad someone else has heard of that film. Haven't seen it in years. Thought it was a good film. It was filmed off the coast of Felixstowe in Suffolk where there was an air-sea rescuse base until sometime in the Fifties. |
